Every time I read another article about tips for solo female travelers, I get a warm feeling inside. I know that our friends, sisters, mothers and partners have a new source of information. It’s easy to think that women’s safety is their problem. It isn’t. We, men, have to be as engaged as they are to tackle this issue.

I was pleasantly surprised when I felt the cold air filling up my lungs even on a hot summer’s day in Rio de Janeiro. The strong and sweet Brazilian arabica coffee helped me through my state of torpor at 4:30 a.m. The dark sky was clear and soon Vitor would be picking me up for our day of activities.

I USUALLY TRAVEL with an 8kg backpack — including my laptop. I don’t remember the last time I checked my backpack in. And I obviously never pay for it. Consequently, I never have to wait for it on the baggage carousel — those 10 minutes waiting might make you miss the one-per-hour airport shuttle.

I learned from a very young age how precious women are. I was told to care for them and treat them with the utmost respect, not because they were weak, but because we are equals. I was told to neve…...

It took me some time to get to sleep the night before, but it didn’t take long to realise we had chosen the wrong hammocks. Yes, they were new and beautiful; the fancy red and green weave definitely caught our eyes — we were perhaps too quick in deciding to buy it. Unfortunately we didn’t know better.

You cannot get comfortable in your hammock from beauty alone, they need to be wide so you can stretch your legs without falling — ours weren’t. So, after moving about incessantly from side to side I finally found a half decent position and fell asleep.

From the car window, I could see the sea of white tents as we slowly approached Haridwar in Northern India. The sheer amount of people was proof that Kumbh Mela was indeed one of the largest gatherings in the world – 100 million souls.

Amazingly, I still had some personal space, a big difference from when I was in Brazil during Carnival, where for several moments I felt like I had a conjoined twin attached to me. I wondered if Haridwar would be so full of life if it hadn’t been hosting such a big event.

Many people think that when they’re applying for a new job, they’ll only be assessed based on their resumes and interviews. However, as social media is becoming more prominent, with an ever-growing user base, that’s not the case anymore. The way you portray yourself online might determine whether you get a job or not.

So, before you starting applying for new jobs, make sure your digital persona is not tarnishing your image and you’re not putting yourself at a disadvantage. You should have the...

It’s impossible to think about Rio de Janeiro without visualising the semi-naked bodies, the parties and even more so - the mesmerising beaches. With an average of 280 days of sunshine each year, it’s easy to understand the love Cariocas (Rio’s locals) have for the sand and sea.

It doesn’t matter if you travel for a weekend, a week, or a month: when you come back you’re going to be hit by the post-travel blues, especially if you had an amazing time. In my case, after six months in SE Asia, I’m struggling a bit with England’s cold...

As a professional translator, I have always used movies as a means to improve my vocabulary, to teach expressions to my students or as interesting personal translation projects. Movies help you get acquainted with the pronunciation of foreign languages and also discover unknown colloquialisms; film is a very powerful tool.
